Many of These Important Events Have ALREADY STARTED to Come to Pass. These things will affect you, and you should keep reading.

The Perfect Storm

Although some so-called 'prophets' can be 'flaky', John Paul Jackson is genuine with a real prophetic gift. John Paul is a seer of seers, and these alarming prophecies will surely take place, although John Paul believes that the effects can be lessened through corporate repentance and prayer. I took notes while listening to John Paul Jackson's DVD
entitled "The Perfect Storm", and while listening to John Paul on the
Sid Roth show. John Paul said that these things will come to pass within the next 10 years, and he first gave these prophecies in August of 2008, and much of it has already started to come to pass. This is not a time for fear, but of planning, and repentance and seeking the face of the Lord. I strongly suggest that you get the prophecies (together with why these things are happening and what we must do) straight from the prophet's mouth by buying his DVD (or PDF transcript) entitled "The Perfect Storm" which can be obtained at his website here: http://www.streamsministries.com/store/index.php

Many of the things that John Paul spoke of are as follows: Events that have already been fulfilled are written in ORANGE. Events in the process of being fulfilled I wrote in GREEN.

President Obama sees himself as a kind of a do-good saviour, however, there will be economic policies that will be passed that will hurt this country. Social security and retirement plans will be worth little. Had it not been for abortions, there would be 30 million more people at wage earning age giving in to the Social Security system. The dollar will drop in value and a new currency is coming to the United States, Canada and Mexico, called the Amero - Dollar. There will be a dirty bomb that will go off in at least one major city. A coastal city where a dirty bomb will explode has tunnels, and John Paul saw them flooded. ("Saw" means, as in a vision.) Also there would be bombs left in crowded places that would be detonated by radical Islamics. Many malls will be more than half empty, the buildings unrented, the owners unable to pay the mortgage. John Paul saw a shopping mall that was actually be used as a shelter for the homeless. Mortgage defaults and credit card debt and commercial paper dominoes were yet to fall. Real estate in the rural areas would go up in value, in that everyone would want to get out of the city. State debt would continue to grow. John Paul saw thousands leaving the cities. There will be drought in some areas of our country that will cause the price of water to be higher than the price of oil in one or two big cities. The drought will be world wide, but spotty, and won't affect all. There will be a national food shortage, caused partially by drought, partially by failure of genetically altered hybrid crops to come to maturity, and partially due to high oil prices. Some grocery trucks will have to be guarded to avoid robbery. He saw a backhoe being used to tear up an asphalt street in the city in order to grow food. There will be an assassination attempt on our president by radical Islam, with the intent of blaming it on racial reasons, in order to cause riots and disruption in the U.S. and take the eye off of what they (radical Islamics) are doing. We need to keep our president in prayer that this will not happen. The worst riots in the history of the United States will break out, however, they will not be so much racially motivated as, rather, Robin Hood mentality of taking from the rich to give to the poor. Iran will launch a missile at Israel, from which fiscal nuclear material will be released. This will start a conflict between Iran and Israel that will cause oil exports from that region to be hindered. The conflict will be exacerbated by Russia, who will try to keep the Middle East tension ongoing, attempting control of the Ukraine, so that the price of oil would go up to benefit Russia financially. Russia will sell weapons to Iran. Antisemitism will increase as many nations will blame Israel for increases in the price of oil. Pakistan will be catering more so to radical Islamic terrorists, and likewise Egypt also, will have a new leader that will cater to the radicals. "The woes of 2012" is a phrase that John Paul heard several times in prayer and in dreams. John Paul saw a bubble around our solar system that is weakening, which will allow solar winds to influence jet streams and cause cracks in the earth's magnetic shield. Abnormal jet streams will cause unusual weather, such as a hurricane 500 miles in diameter, tornadoes in places where tornadoes do not usually occur, a tornado with winds of 350 m.p.h., and there will be 24 inches of rain in a 24hour period, and softball size hail. There will also be magnetic changes in the earth, and communication problems with cellphones and satellite TV's, and airplanes may even be grounded due to communication problems with the control tower. There will also be new skin diseases as a result of this. A volcano will become active in the U.S. There will be an epidemic here and elsewhere. There will be signs in the sun and moon such as the Bible speaks of in Joel. A bubble of hope will form economically, but it will be short-lived, but it will provide some time for Christians to prepare, but don’t take on any more debt. Things will start to get bad toward the end of 2010. Most of our foreign aid to other countries will be cut off. International dictators in Islam will multiply. Islam will attempt to control the government in some large city, maybe Detroit where they will work on the "multiplication project", whatever that means. (John Paul wasn't sure what 'Multiplication Project' meant). There will be a push for Islamic prayer in schools to be allowed, while forbidding Christian prayer. Islam will attempt to have an Islamic president by 2024. Islam will continue to use threats to intimidate congressional decisions. China will also be somewhat of a threat. Medical advancements and organ transplants will make it possible for homosexual men to be invitro fertilized and give birth by cesarean. Many churches will file bankruptcy as payments on large buildings will not be made. Large ministries will disband for financial difficulty, and home groups will expand. Hidden perversion in the church will be exposed, and the number will be shocking, and not in Catholic churches, but in mainstream churches. (This is the main jist of the bad stuff that will happen, but I suggest you buy the DVD or at get the transcript from John Paul Jackson's website.

In December of 2009 on the Sid Roth Show, John Paul also stated that the gold in the United States Treasury was not real gold, but "gold covered. Underneath, it is not real gold." John Paul also stated that gold would go much higher. Gold was hovering around 1400 per ounce when John Paul said this.

Many churches, however, will experience the thick glory and grace of God, and many individuals will be strengthed for supernatural exploits. (I, Karl Stein, am one whom God has blessed with a wonderful anointing for healing). John Paul speaks more of the good things that will happen in the church, and the things that we, as believers should do, rather than the bad things that will happen. John Paul says that this is not a time for fear, but for repentance and seeking the Lord. Although I give a very brief description on the "Pastor" page (left-hand column) of why these things are happening and what we should do, I suggest you buy John Paul's DVD entitled "The Perfect Storm", or at least get a copy of the transcript in PDF, which can be obtained here: http://www.streamsministries.com/store/index.php

Support for the fulfillment of John Paul's prophecies:

(Much of this teaching came from world evangelist Perry Stone)

Where is America in Prophecy (the Bible)?

This teaching is in 5 parts:

1: Cyclical Patterns: (Explains what a cyclical pattern is).

2: An Example of a 100-year Cyclical Pattern found in our Presidents.

3: An Example of a Cyclical Pattern in the Life of Jesus.

4: The American/Roman Cycle: America as Part of the Western Leg of the Roman Empire.

5: The 400-Year Cycle: Americans as a Spiritual Type of Israel, and the U.S. as an Economic Type of Egypt.

6: A Deeper Analysis of where we are headed by the scriptures.

Where is America in Prophecy (the Bible)?

Some have stated that America is not found in the Bible, therefore America will perish completely before the end times come about. Although bad things are coming to America, this report is over-exaggerated and must be tempered with the Word of God as found in scripture to bring balance. First, let us deal briefly with how to interpret scripture on a cyclical basis:

1: Cyclical Patterns: (What is a Cyclical Pattern?)

To understand the future, we must first understand the past, because everything goes in a circle. Yes, just about everything: Think about it: The sun sets, and rises again as the earth rotates. The moon has cycles every month, which is why the moon often prophetically speaks of a woman. The years are cyclical in nature, as are planting and harvest times. The week starts all over again every Sunday. The water runs into the sea, evaporates, comes down as rain and starts all over again. The hands of our clock go in a circle, to start all over. History repeats itself. The Jewish understand this concept, their feasts and sabbaths based on repeating cycles such as the 7-day sabbath, the 7-year sabbath, the 49-year sabbath, the feasts days, etc. Consider the following scriptures from Ecclesiastes:

Eccl 1:9-10

9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

Eccl 3:15

15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.

Even man’s life is cyclical, returning to the dust from which he was formed.

Eccl 3:20

20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

Eccl 12:7

7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.

2: An Example of a 100-year Cyclical Pattern Found in our Presidents Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy:

History repeats itself:

1 Abraham Lincoln was elected president in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected president in 1960.

2 Both presidents were assassinated.

3 John Wilkes Booth (assassinated Lincoln) was born in 1839, (although some say 1838. I personally have not seen the original documents, however, 1838 is close enough).

9 Both presidents were southern democratic senators before being elected as president.

10 Both presidents had their election contested.

11 Both presidents were involved with civil rights.

12 Both presidents were congressmen: Lincoln began in 1846 and Kennedy began in 1946.

13 Both suffered the death of a child while in the White House.

14 Both foresaw their deaths prior to their death occurring.

15 Both were shot on a Friday.

16 Both were shot in the head.

17 Both were shot by a southern radical.

18 Both were killed in the presence of their wives.

19 Lincoln was killed in the Ford Theatre. Kennedy was killed in a Ford Lincoln limousine.

20 Lincoln was shot in a theatre and the assassin hid in a warehouse.

Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and the assassin hid in a theatre.

21 Both assassins were killed before trial.

22 Kennedy had a secretary named Lincoln.

Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy, (although some doubters claim that this is hard to prove).

23 Both secretaries warned the presidents not to go to where they were killed, (although some doubters claim that this is hard to prove).

24 Both presidents were against the Federal Reserve and the Central Bank.

25 Both presidents had printed up their own debt free and interest free money while in office.

3: An Example of a Cyclical Pattern in the Life of Jesus:

1. Angels appeared when just prior to conception in Mary’s womb when His Spirit came to earth. Angels appeared just after the resurrection when His Spirit left this earth from the Mount of Olives.

2. Angels appeared when Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Angels appeared at the tomb in His death when He rose again.

3. Jesus fasted for 40 days in the desert at the beginning of His ministry on earth. Jesus walked on this earth for 40 days after the resurrection.

4. There was a Joseph (husband of Mary) that was responsible in some ways for the birth of Jesus, in that Mary could have been stoned according to Levitical law, but he took her as wife. There was Joseph of Arimethia who took responsibility in Jesus’ death, putting Him in the tomb.

5. There were fragrant ointments given to Jesus at birth by the wise men. Similarly, Jesus was anointed for death by the woman with the alabaster box, and also anointed with myrrh and aloes at the tomb by Nicodemas, who helped Joseph of Aremethia. (Also the woman brought sweet spices to the tomb.)

6. Jesus was wrapped in swaddling cloth when born. Jesus was also wrapped in clean linen in the tomb.

7. There was a King Herod when Jesus was born. There was a different King Herod when Jesus was crucified.

8. When Jesus was born, Herod had all the children around Bethlehem killed. Upon the resurrection, many saints of old were also resurrected, and seen walking in the streets. (This is more of an opposite thing than a similar thing. For example: about 3000 died an Mt. Sinai at the giving of the law, but on the anniversary of that same day in fulfillment of prophecy on Pentecost, about 3000 were filled with the Holy Ghost. This is a rabbit trail, and would take a whole different teaching, but nonetheless, Ecclesiastes does say: Eccl 7:8 Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

9. Of course there was a Mary at the beginning, as was a Mary, (actually 3 different Mary’s at the crucifixion.

10. There was a Simon (Simon Peter), at the beginning of Jesus’ earthly ministry, and a Simon the Cyrenian who helped carry the cross.

11. Jesus helped Peter catch fish at the beginning of His ministry and Peter was brought into relationship with Jesus. Likewise at the very end of His ministry Jesus helped Peter catch 153 fish and restored Peter’s relationship.

12. There was a sign in heaven at the birth of Jesus, (Jupiter and Venus lined up, one in front of the other, leading to where Jesus was born), and there was a sign in heaven at his crucifixion, (a total eclipse for 3 hours, with the sign of the great cross, which is four planets that were brightly visible during the eclipse, and drawing lines connecting the planets would make a cross.) (See the teaching on the 2000 year cycles below).

13. At the beginning of the ministry of Jesus, He was in Jerusalem, likewise at the end of His earthly ministry.

14. Jesus ascended into heaven from the Mount of Olives. When He returns, according to the Bible, He will return to: The Mount of Olives!!! Can you think of any other similarities?

4: America as part of the Western leg of the Roman Empire:

This topic can get deep into history. Basically, the prophecy of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream in Daniel chapter 2 tells of the coming kingdoms. The legs of iron represent the Roman empire. What people often fail to notice is that there are two legs of this kingdom, signifying two branches, east and west. Also, the feet are a mixture of iron and clay, signifying a mixture of communism and democracy, or possibly Islamic radicalism and Christianity. Rev 17:9-10 speaks of 5 empires that are fallen, which according to Nebuchadnezzar’s dream are: Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Media- Persia, and Greece. Rome is the 6th in John’s day, (the one that is), and the 7th will probably be the New World Government. And then the 8th will be the AntiChrist, which will probably come to power in the middle of the tribulation. However, the Lamb of God, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords wins in the end.

Constantine built two cities. The Byzantine empire built churches all over in the east and in Jerusalem and everywhere that Jesus walked, and they had their own gold coins and form of government and they ruled for 1000 years, up until the Islamics came and the Otterman-Turkish empire. The Byzantines were the Greek form of Christianity and became the eastern leg of the Roman empire, in a nutshell without a long history lesson. The Roman-Catholic church became the western leg based out of Rome.

Why is America part of this Western leg? Let’s look at some of the similarities that America has in common with the Roman empire.

1. Rome had big sporting events, and so does America. Both had big stadiums. Both emphasized races, with Rome it was chariots, with America it is cars.

2. Rome had a national anthem and would sing the anthem at sports events, just like America.

3. The Romans would sing this anthem with their hand over their heart, and had a flag for their country; likewise America.

4. The Romans had a judicial lawmaking senate, likewise America.

5. The Romans were tolerant of the homosexual lifestyle, likewise America.

6. The Romans believed that all Gods were legit and all Gods were accepted, and this is one of the things that led to their downfall. America is starting to make this mistake.

7. Both were the leading superpowers in their day.

8. Both had the greatest military in the world.

9. Both occupied the Middle East.

10. Both had dealings directly with the Jewish people.

11. Both allowed the killing of infants (abortion).

12. Both had a main leader, (Caesar or the President).

13. Both had a flag, and would stand and pledge allegiance to the flag.

14. Both had an eagle for a symbol.

15. Both had a Capitol Hill.

16. America has patterned their governmental buildings after that of Roman architecture.

17. Toward the end of Rome’s dominance, before the collapse of the Western leg of the Roman empire, the Senate leaders were almost all heathens, that were corrupted and let bad laws come into being. Hello?

18. The Romans overtaxed the middle class to pay for all of the building programs, which caused the downfall of their nation through this, and, likewise, America is headed in that direction.

19. Rome had 3 wars toward the end of their empire before it collapsed. Likewise, the U.S. has had two recent wars, Iraq and Afghanistan, and my guess is that the third will be either Iran or Korea, before the United States collapses.

20. Rome had slaves, and they marked these slaves with a mark on either their hand or forehead. As Rome once was a world empire, the Bible tell us in Revelation 13:16 that the False Messiah (the Beast) of the New World Order (Empire) will attempt to make everyone take the Mark of the Beast on their hand or forehead.

5: Americans as a Spiritual Type and Shadow of Israel, and the United States as an Economic Type and Shadow of Egypt:

The 400 Year Pattern:

1. Israel had 13 tribes (There were 12 originally, but Joseph was divided into Ephraim & Manesseh to make 13), and likewise America had 13 original colonies.

2. Israel was divided between the Northern Kingdom (Israel), and the Southern Kingdom, (Judah); likewise America was divided in the Civil war.

3. Both countries, (America and Israel) were involved with slavery which had to be broken.

4. Israel had the Torah for its laws; likewise, America’s laws are based on the Old Testament Torah.

5. There was a push by early Americans to make Hebrew the official language, because they hated the English so much, although it never came to pass.

6. Looking at a map of ancient Israel, and looking at a map of the original 13 colonies of America, the shapes on both maps are almost identical, although America is much bigger.

7. America was a safe haven for Jewish refugees that came here from: Spain, Russia, Germany, etc. (People that have Spanish names that end in ‘ez’ such as Gomez and Sanchez are of Jewish descent.)

8. The U.S. has Egyptian emblems such as pyramids and obelisks on their money and architecture in Washington.

9. Egypt was the first Biblical Empire, so likewise, the United States will be the last empire before the New World Order.

10. The patriotic colors of the U.S. are red, white and blue. Likewise, Egypt had the same colors (red for southern Egypt, white for northern Egypt, and blue for unification of the two).

11. The Israelites (Joseph’s family) crossed the Red Sea in a normal fashion to go to Egypt at the beginning of the 400 years (see Gen 15:13 and Gen chapters 45 and 46); likewise the Atlantic Ocean was crossed by Christians 400 years ago leaving England to come to America. The first settlement in America was Jamestown, founded in 1607, just over 400 years ago.

12. After 430 years in Egypt, the Israelites left Egypt (Exodus Chapter 12) and crossed the Red Sea in a miraculous fashion at a different place where the water was deep, in order to go to the Promised Land. Likewise, although there may be a normal exodus from the United States, the biblical pattern suggests that there will be a supernatural delivery out of the United States, which very well could be the rapture when the Lord returns.

6: A Deeper Analysis of Where We Are Headed According to Scripture:

The Bible says in Exo 1:8 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. Likewise, the United States had a new president that took office in 2008 who did not know “Jesus”. “Joseph” is a clear, prophetic type and shadow of Jesus, in that their lives demonstrate about 130 similarities, which to me clearly shows the authenticity of the Bible. Sixty of those similarities can be found here: http://www.hannoveribc.com/clientimages/25727/chronological/extrasjanuar/60similaritiesbetweenjosephandjesuspink.pdf The words ‘Joseph’ and ‘Jesus’ are very similar in the Hebrew and have similar meanings. Although our 44th president knew of Jesus, he had no personal relationship with Him, and evidence shows that he was schooled under Islamic teachings. The election year of 2008 was significant in that Jamestown was founded in 1607, and a cross was planted there and our country was dedicated to God; and this means the United States was 400 years old in 2007. While running for president, his slogan was ‘change’. This is when ‘change’ started to accelerate in the United States, as it did in the land of Egypt when this new Pharaoh took office.

The very next two scripture say: Exo 1:9-10 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: Come on, let us deal wisely (shrewdly) with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land. It is no secret that the socialist New World Order agenda has been inhibited from world dominance mainly due to the United States. In the past, the democratic U.S. with its strong military and Christian beliefs stood contrary to a socialist sort of dictatorship where the mark of the beast would be mandatory, and an evil ruler (antichrist) would reign. Most economists can clearly see that the American dollar must fall before a new world currency can take its place. As the scripture prophetically hints, laws are gradually being passed making it harder for Americans to leave the country, (get them up out of the land).

Exo 1:11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses. One of the meanings for ‘taskmasters’ is ‘a driver, an exactor, or a raiser of taxes’. We already have people leaving some major U.S. cities because taxes are too high, and this situation will probably grow worse. The ‘treasure cities’ of today that are being built up by American taxpayers are: Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley, Lehman Brothers, the Federal Reserve and the Central Banks. The Federal Reserve (a privately owned organization) is ripping off the American people, in that much of the money that is printed ends up going to these “too big to fail” banks. The savings of Americans is being drained through taxes, inflation, and inflation-taxes, as well as the bust and boom economic cycles that are purposefully created to drain the taxpayers. If you want to understand how this is being done, contact me, and I will send you some links. Let’s move on:

Exo 1:13 - 14 And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve with rigour: And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour. (the Hebrew word for ‘rigour’ means ‘to break apart or fracture’) In the U.S. we are seeing more work for deteriorating dollars as our economic system is ‘breaking apart’ and socialist government grows bigger and bigger.

The new Pharaoh legalized abortion in Exodus 1:16, as well as Exo 1:22 And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive. Likewise, this is one of the first steps our president did in taking office in 2008, when he reversed a law made by president Bush and legalized abortion and funded it around the world via U.S. taxpayers.

Briefly, if we keep reading through the book of Exodus, we find that the plagues that come have many similarities to the end-time plagues found in the book of Revelation.

Further on in Exodus chapter 12 we find that the Passover Lamb is a clear type and shadow of Jesus, who is called the Lamb of God in scripture, who gave His life on the anniversary of this day, Passover. The blood that is applied to the lintels of the door prophetically speaks of the blood of Jesus that protects us. Many churches have been trying to remove the blood from their sermons/Bibles, but there will come to America a new revelation of the power that is in the blood of Jesus, together with a revelation for miraculous healing, in that the Israelites were protected by the blood of the Passover Lamb and were brought out healed out of their bondage. They were all healthy when Moses (a type and shadow of Jesus) brought them out of Egypt. If we keep reading, we find that Moses brought them out with silver and gold, as confirmed in Psalms 105:37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.

Although many can see the end-time events in the books of Revelation, Matthew, Luke and Daniel and the prophets, many do not see this 400-year pattern in Exodus until they are made aware of it. Theses end-time events are also fore-shadowed 400 years prior to Exodus in the prior cycle of Genesis chapter 47. I will point out the prophetic symbolism in the following scriptures:

Gen 47:13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very sore, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine. Please read the prophecies at the top of this column as well as the "2000 Year Cycle" below to understand why I believe there is a ‘spotty’ famine coming that will affect the whole world. The famine fits the 400 and 2000 year cycles, and is prophetically mentioned in many places of the Bible.

Gen 47:14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house. Likewise, the money is being gathered up through inflation and taxes into the government/Federal Reserve/big banks.

Gen 47:15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth. Again, there will be famine, and the U.S. dollar will fail.

Gen 47:16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail.

Gen 47:17 And they brought their cattle unto Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the asses: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year. Likewise, unemployment is growing higher and people are loosing their goods and their means to support themselves, becoming more dependent upon the government. I’ve also heard recent reports on the internet saying that Roundup may be the possible cause of increased miscarriages in farm animals (and humans).

Gen 47:18 When that year was ended, they came unto him the second year, and said unto him, We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is not ought left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands:

Gen 47:19 Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.

Gen 47:20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh's. Likewise, it is the plan of the New World Order to crush our economy and to eventually get all the mortgaged property and to have everybody dependent upon the government. Please see the "Inside One World Order News" in the right column of this page for more info.

Gen 47:21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to the other end thereof. Likewise, because of rising tax rates in the cities, there is already an exodus from many large cities to country areas (borders).

Gen 47:22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion assigned them of Pharaoh, and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they sold not their lands. It is the will of the Lord for the church to prosper, (however, they must pray and prepare and heed the voices of the prophets.)

Gen 47:23 Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and ye shall sow the land.

Gen 47:24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye shall give the fifth part unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones. I suggest the possibility that there may be some sort of flat tax coming, or maybe a tax on every single financial transaction, in that eventually the “Mark of the Beast” or “666” will become mandatory. “666” in the Hebrew language appears as “www” as found in internet addresses. Of course, the most common translation of the New Testament, the Greek, gives us much deeper revelation as to what this ‘Mark’ is. To learn more about the “Mark of the Beast” please visit this link: http://www.ridingthebeast.com/articles/epi-charagma-chi-xi-stigma/ and this link:

Gen 47:25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants. Things may get so bad financially, that the people will happily work for the government.

(Much of the information about the cycles was obtained through the teachings of Perry Stone. His teachings can be found at www.voe.org I highly recommend Perry Stone for anyone who has a hunger for the deeper things of the Bible.)

Below are listed more supporting reasons I've found why John Paul's prophecies could come to pass.

The 2000 year cycle:

THE 2000-year Planetary Sign OF THE GRAND CROSS during an ECLIPSE:

On August 11, 1999, a total solar eclipse over the Middle East
was interpreted by some as a sign of the time of the end. In Europe and the
Middle East, from start to finish, it lasted from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00
p.m., about three hours. At the time of the eclipse, there were four planets that were visible: Mars,
Saturn, Jupiter, and Uranus. These four planets were positioned in such a manner that, if a
person were to draw an invisible line from one planet to another, it
would form an X-shaped cross.

Called a "Grand Cross," this unique sign becomes more interesting when
you consider the time in which the eclipse and the positioning of these
four planets occurred. Christian astronomers point out that on Passover,
April 28 in A.D. 28, the same four planets were in a similar position
to form a Grand Cross. Some scholars believe this was the time of the
crucifixion, especially in that the Bible clearly states that this was the same day (Passover) and time of day that Jesus was crucified, and the Bible also clearly describes the eclipse during the crucifiction.

Moving forward from the first day of April 28 in A.D. 28 exactly 2000 years using the Biblical 360-day prophetic year brings us to August 11, 1999, the same day the three-hour
eclipse occurred from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. as mentioned above. The New Testament notes
that as Christ hung on the cross, there was darkness upon the earth for
three hours, from the sixth to the ninth hour (Luke 23:44). This would have been
from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. the way we keep time. Both days fell on a Wednesday and on the Jewish feast of Passover. (Prophetic years are 360 days, Biblicly, and naturally, before the days of Hezekiah and Joshua.)

One of Bill Cloud’s secular Muslim friends in Jerusalem told him that
Muslims living in Jerusalem and the West Bank fell into great fear when
this eclipse occurred. Many remained locked in their homes, praying.
Some who were very illiterate believed this was a sign the world was
coming to an end and the day of judgment was about to arrive. Other
Muslims believe a tradition that a time of great darkness will precede
the day of judgment.

How interesting it is that the sign of the Grand Cross, a unique
positioning of four planets, was seen in darkness as the sun was hidden
for three hours, stretching from the Middle East into Europe! The next
day, August 12, 1999, the new moon was visible at sunset. Coincidentally, this first day
of Elul on the Hebrew calendar begins a period of 40 days of repentance
that concludes on Yom Kipper, the Day of Atonement.

The 2000-year Sign of the Star that the Wise Men Followed:

Briefly, the Bible records that the wise men from Babylon followed a star to Jerusalem to where the Lord Jesus was born. This was a no-brainer, in that they had the 70-week prophecy from Daniel. Daniel was a prophet that lived in Babylon. Without writing a book, the prophecy gave the wise men the time of the birth. The wise men merely subtracted 30 years, (which is the age to enter the priesthood according to Biblical Levitical law) from the start of the 70th week, (a day prophetically being a year). The wise men followed the star to Bethlehem, giving them the place of His birth. The star was merely the lining up of Venus and Jupiter. The wise men merely followed the lining up of the two planets. This sign, marking the birth of Jesus, together with the eclipse/sign of the cross at His death, have both happened again recently within the last couple of decades, marking the 2000 year cycle, (although the sign of his birth in controversial in that there were several instances or the aligning of planets, and some are not sure which one the Wise Men saw). The reason that this confirms John Paul's prophecies is because: 1: John Paul said there would be signs in the heavens, as well as the earth, which likewise the Bible says there will be signs before the return of Jesus. 2: John Paul also spoke of a drought to come, and the Bible records a famine in the days of the disciples/Claudius Caesar as prophesied by Agabus in Acts 11:28. This drought happened about 2000 years ago. If we are in a 2000 year cycle, and the planetary alignments are somewhat similar to the way it was 2000 years ago, then we very well could likewise be in for a drought in our modern times. 3. In seeing the same signs within the last two decades that marked the birth and death of Jesus 2000 years ago, then likewise, we could also start to see some of the tribulation-like times that proceed His returning.

The SIGN of Noah's Comet:

The Hale Bop comet was the brightest comet of the 20th century, becoming visible with the naked eye for a period of about 18 months, the closest point to the earth being April 1, 1997. This is significant because some astonomers have carefully concluded that the last time this comet entered our solar system was 4,210 years prior, during the days of Noah, and the flood, according to PSR Magazine of California. Also, 1998 is the Jewish year 5758, which converted to its equivalent Hebrew letters, means "season of Noah" ! According to the ancient Jewish text Seder Olam Rabah, the comet's previous appearance was approximately the same year that Noah began building the ark, and Noah saw it. Jesus warned us as it is written in Matt 24:38-39, “For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the arc, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away, so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be." So will multitudes be caught unaware when our Lord returns.

Do Not Hurt the Oil and the Wine.

The Bible, in the book of Revelation chapter 6 speaks of a famine that is coming, but why does it say, “Do not hurt the oil and the wine”?

Revelation 6:6

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

On today's modern inflation-based wages, this is equivalent to working a whole day for one loaf of bread. But why does it say, "see thou hurt not the oil and the wine." I believe that the reason is found with the genetically altered hybrid seed that is being produced by companies such as Monsanto. This seed is highly resistant to herbicides, insecticides, and to the insects. When insects such as caterpillars attempt to eat these altered crops, the caterpillars either die, or grow to about half the size. Unfortunately, we need butterflies for the pollination of many of our crops. However the ‘oil’ (from olive trees) and ‘wine’ (from grapes) are two main staples that are not dependant on cross-pollination by insects. I was born in 1952 and I have noticed a HUGE decrease in the number of butterflies since the time of my youth, and the situation is getting worse. Prophetically, however, the scripture has a double meaning, speaking of protection in those days for those that have the oil (the anointing of the Holy Spirit) and the wine (the joy of the Holy Spirit).

Genetically Altered Hybrid Seed:

Of course, John Paul Jackson prophesied that the genetically altered hybrid seed would fail, in that it would not quite come to maturity, such as corn cobs with no corn kernels. It is interesting to note that the altered seed that is obtained from these companies such as Monsanto is not purchased, but rented. This is a big problem for many reasons: One reason is that the world food cartel seems to be growing in power and in their efforts to control the food supply. There seems to be little support for the small farmers. What can stop the food cartel from “raising the rent” on its genetically altered seed? Another problem is that the altered seed is accidentally being cross pollinated with natural seed, and the natural seed is becoming modified unintentionally. This situation intensifies in that companies such as Monsanto are suing small farmers that have modified seed in their fields that the farmers never purchased and never wanted. The farmers do not have the money or the scientific expertise to win the court cases against Monsanto. Monsanto claims that the farmers should pay for the benefit of their supposed superior seed. Unfortunately, Monsanto has been putting these farmers out of business and has actually been winning the court cases and taking possession of their land. The problem becomes worse as the hybrid seeds kill the very insects such as butterflies that are necessary for cross pollination of the crops.

Monsanto has bragged on one of their web sites, saying, “God did not produce this seed, we did.” However, from what I've heard, even the birds know not to eat this altered seed. Certain scientists say that there is not enough evidence to assume that crops grown from this altered seed is safe for human consumption.

The Bible says is Romans 10:9-10 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved, for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Many people say the prayer in church, but seldom, if at all, confess Him as Lord before others. This is where salvation starts.

I hope you have enjoyed this.

God is love!!! God bless you, and thanks for reading.

Other Signs of the Times

(The Real Prophetic Biblical Signs)

The Sun and the Moon are Signs:

Gen 1:14 declares this right at the beginning:

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

Jesus declared it in Luke 21:25

25 And there shall be signs in the sun , and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

and Luke 21:11

11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

The highly esteemed prophet John Paul Jackson who is a seer of seers heard this reoccurring phrase while in prayer and in dreams: "The woes of 2012!” I personally believe John Paul Jackson is used of God for an 11th hour prophetic ministry. However, let’s discuss the year 2015:

The Year 2015:

First of all, it is necessary to understand scriptures such as Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

And Acts 2:19-20 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:

I believe that “great and terrible (notable) day of the Lord” is the Tribulation.

Let’s discuss the phrase “The sun will be darkened, and the moon turned to blood” from a Rabbitical, Hebraic prospective:

Of course the sun could be darkened by smoke such as when Saddam blew up the oil wells in Kuwait. Chemicals in the air can make the moon appear red. However, according to the Rabbis, the ones that study the Hebrew and that knew what Joel meant, who have books that go back 2 to 3 thousand years, believe differently. They say that these are solar and lunar total eclipses. A full moon can actually look red while in a total lunar eclipse.

The Jewish Talmud (a historical Jewish commentary) says, “When the moon is in eclipse it is a bad omen for Israel. If the face of the moon is as red as blood it is a sign that the sword is coming to the world.”

The most eclipses that can happen in one year are 7 (both lunar and solar) and this happened twice in the 1900's: on 1917 and again on 1973. Of course 1917 was the end of WW1 when the Balfour Declaration was signed and a homeland was established for Israel in Palestine. In 1973 we had our first real oil embargo, there was famine in 28 countries, there was the Yom Kippur war, Nixon was impeached and all the EU leaders were either having problems or stepping down, some of these things I believe may be a shadow of things to come. These two years are both considered to be prophetic years.

Whenever you have FOUR CONSECUTIVE LUNAR ECLIPSES in a row it is considered a “Tetra”. It almost never happens. However, this happened over the period between 1948 and 1950 when Israel became a nation. The next time (and the last time) that it happened was in 1967 and 1968, when of course Israel took Jerusalem in the 6-day war. Now remember, we (the U.S.) are on a 365-day solar calendar, but Israel is on a LUNAR calendar, so what happens to the moon reflects Israel. Rev 12:1 hints at this. The woman in Revelation 12:1 is similar to Joseph’s vision in Genesis which I believe is Israel: Rev 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

According to Rabbitical terminology, when you first see the new moon, it is the moon being ‘born again’. (Coming from darkness to light)!!! Ha!

However, it is when full lunar eclipses occur on the ancient Jewish, Feast days, that it is considered most important.

This very rare event happened in 1996 with two full eclipses: one on Passover (April 3) and another on Feast of Tabernacles (Sept 23) on the exact 3,000 year anniversary of Jerusalem from when King David took the city. The fact that this happened on the first and last Feasts of the year seems maybe to signal some kind of prophetic fulfillment. Also there was a third lunar eclipse (90%) that happened 6 months after Tabernacles on the Feast of Purim, which is a lesser known feast established in Esther’s time. Since 1996 there has been thousands of Israelites die in their own land at the hand of the suicide, radical Islamics. Of course 9/11 was just down the road also.

The last time that 4 lunar blood eclipses (a “Tetra”) all happened on Jewish Feast days was in 1493, the year after the Jews were expelled from Spain on the 9th of the Jewish month of Av, and right after Columbus discovered America, and America became a safe haven for the Jews. (By the way, Israel has had at least 8 major events all happen on the 9th of Av. No other nation has ever experienced even 2 major events happening on the same day of the calendar. Events like this verify that Israel is God’s timeclock).

For the first time since 1493 a series of lunar eclipses are about to happen on Jewish Feast days. In 2015 the religious year will begin with a total solar eclipse followed 2 weeks later by a blood moon (total eclisped moon) on Passover. The civil year Rosh Hoshana (Trumpets) will begin with a total solar eclipse followed 2 weeks later with another total blood lunar eclipse on the Feast of Tabernacles. In summation, there will be 4 total lunar eclilpses in a row on the following feast days: Passover on April 15, 2014 and Tabernacles on Oct 8, 2014 and Passover on April 4, 2015 and Tabernacles on Sept 28, 2015, which is a rare “Tetra”; and even more rarely, these lunar eclipses are on Feast days, not to mention they are COMBINED with solar eclipses two weeks before two of the lunar eclipses: March 20, 2015 which is Nisan 1, the beginning of the New Year (religious year), and Sept 13, 2015 which is the Feast of Trumpet, (and also the beginning of the civil year). Many Jewish Rabbis are looking at this being the possible war of Gog & MaGog (Ez 38 & 39). This is probably a cosmic sign that one of the biggest events that will happen to Israel will take place in the next several years. Whenever there is a set of eclipses like this, something major happens that affects Israel (or even the whole world) within a year or two before or after the eclipses. History itself should then give credence to the prophecies of John Paul Jackson.

Ps 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God ;

Luke 21:25-28 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Notice the above scripture: ‘when these things BEGIN to come to pass, then look up’ for your redemption is drawing closer.

A Black Hole in the Shape of a Cross in the WhirlPool Galaxy

Matt 24:29-30

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Is not the ‘Cross’ considered a ‘sign’ for Jesus? There is a black hole in the shape of a cross that has been discovered in the middle of the Whirlpool Galaxy, first mentioned as seen through the Hubble telescope in 1992. I found a picture of it on the internet at this site: http://www.his-forever.com/celestial_cross.htm This is probably not the ‘sign’ that the scripture above (Matt 24:30) is talking about, but it is good fodder for thought.

This info is just barely touching the surface of all the heavenly signs that have been taking place, especially since 1992. Much of this information was taken from known, established prophetic evangelists such as Perry Stone, Bill Cloud, and others, who have studied the Bible intensely for decades through a Jewish perspective.

I hope you enjoyed this. I would like to conclude with this statement: Pain and sickness is not allowed!!!!!!! They tried to kill Jesus at the whipping post so they would not have to walk Him up the hill to Calvary. After taking those stripes, would God ‘allow’ sickness? By His stripes we are healed!!!!!!!

God is anointing men for exploits in these last days, who will prophecy and heal the sick amongst all the turmoil in these last days, bringing God’s Kingdom down to earth wherever they go!!!!!!! I, Karl Stein, am one who God has blessed with a wonderful healing anointing. I have been seeing high percentages of people I pray for be instantly healed, or healed within 2 or 3 minutes, all praise and glory and all my love to the Lord, Jesus the Christ.

Think about Jesus, and God bless ya, Karl Stein

Inside One World Order News:

Reverend Lindsey Williams has gotten inside information as to what the Elite/Money Cartel/New World Order people are doing. Lindsey Williams obtained this information by becoming friends with one of the elite who was on his death bed with cancer and wanted to get right with God. He confessed the plans of this elite, secret organization to Pastor Williams who in turn shared this 'secret' information on the Alex Jones show. I will first state the main jist of what Pastor Williams said, and if you combine that with John Paul Jackson's prophecies on the left of this page, you can get a fairly accurate description of what will happen in the coming years.

Pastor Lindsey said that the secret, elite organization is planning these events to take place before the end of 2012:(My added coments are in Green. Pastor Lindsey made these comments public in October of 2010.

You can Google Lindsey Williams to receive more recent information. I can't keep up with it on this site:

A collapse of the American dollar before 2012.

A rise in oil prices back to between 150 and 200 dollars a barrel.

A conflict in the Middle East that would start within 3 to 6 months, and this conflict could be Iran and Israel, or Iran and the U. S. (The turmoil in Egypt started about 4 to 5 months from when Lindsey gave the announcement, according to his word.)

An agreement between Russia and China in which Russia would agree to sell all its energy (oil and natural gas) exclusively to China, and China would agree to pay in a currency that is not denominated in American dollars, and that this would help to devalue the American dollar. (This agreement was recently made public news on November 25, 2010, just one month after I learned this information, although other news had leaked out even prior to Reverend Williams statement. Google Lindsey Williams to get more recent info.

China would start cashing in its American dollar/Treasury Bond/Debt which would also bring the American dollar down.

The skirmishes in South Korea and Iran will be only to take our eyes off of Russia and China. Watch China and Russia. (This was also spoken by Lindey Williams before the recent problem with North and South Korea.)

Gasoline at 5 dollars a gallon in 6 to 8 months that will go up as the dollar devalues.

Gold and silver to continue to skyrocket.

Every mortgage in America will be owned by the Fed, if they have their way. (They are running into opposition from the individual states. They may have to change the laws or do something radical such as bring in a new currency and do away with American sovereignty for this to happen. Can anybody say 'Amero'?)

The 'Devil's Messiah' (as the elite call it) will come to power as a world leader. (Of course they will use a different description of this person before the public). This will not happen before the end of 2012, but further on down the road.

A
cyber attack in America that will affect computers. (This may be perpetrated to bring about control of the internet and restrict all privacy. However, this may include cash
registers and gas pumps, which are computerized these days, affecting gas and food.) (This info came originally from Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland
Security, on radio news).

Stock enough food in your house for 6 months. (This info was spoken by Janet Napolitano in a private lunch meeting with another woman from Arizona that knows Reverend Williams).

UPDATE to the INSIDE ONE WORLD ORDER NEWS:

Lindsey Williams appeared on the Alex Jones Show again in February of 2011 and added the information below:

Oil to Exceed 200 Dollars per Barrel: The agreement that was made in the 70's with Middle East countries (Saudia Arabia) to buy their oil in exchange for U.S. Treasury Bills (Debt) would be broken. He explained how our major oil companies had drilled their wells, and what caused the oil embargo of 1973. He explained how making the dollar worthless would cause these Treasury Bills to be worthless, allowing for the agreement to be broken (the agreement to purchase almost all our oil exclusively from Saudi Arabia in return for US debt). The Middle East turmoil will eventually spread to every nation in that area including Saudi Arabia, which would close all major oil imports to the United States. The elite plan to take oil to over 200 dollars a barrel, at which point they will draw oil from the wells here in the United States. There is plenty of oil here in the United States, and the oil wells are already drilled with readily available high grade oil waiting to be tapped. There is NO SHORTAGE of oil here within are own borders. Lindsey Williams gives more detailed oil info, including locations of some of these wells (Texas, the Rocky Mountains, and Alaska).

Food, Gold, Silver, Commodities and Etc. to Rise:Lindsey Williams warns us emphatically: The American dollar will be almost completely worthless by the end of 2012, but gold, silver, food and commodities will all continue to rise in price, and oil may go to 8 or 10 dollars a gallon, if you can get it. There will be food on the shelves, but we won't be able to buy it, because it will cost too much. He also warns us to buy food ahead of time to be prepared. He emphatically warns us of the dollar collapse, saying, "if it is written on paper, it won't be worth the paper that it is written on." Buying gold and silver is the only way to protect your money.

You can find links to Alex Jones at InfoWars.com and Lindsey Williams by doing a search, however I recommend a search engine other than Google who tracks your activity.

Have you enjoyed this? Would you like to learn how these elite, one world order people make their money by sucking off of regular people like you and me, and how these international bankers gained control of America and the world? If so, this link below takes you to a very interesting 3 hour and 35 minute documentary that should be required for every citizen in every country to see.

Total Eclipse on the Winter Solstice:

A very dark day in history

We had FULL, TOTAL, LUNAR ECLIPSE on the Winter Solstice on Tuedsay, December 21, 2010. The Eclipse/shadow fell on the United States, Canada and Greenwich on this date, although the eclipse technically was on December 20 in the Time Zones of Hawaii and Alaska. The winter solstice is the darkest day of the year for the northern hemisphere, with the least amount of sunshine, and together with the lunar eclipse makes this day a very dark day, indeed. The next time we will have a similar event will be on December 21, 2094, at which time the shadow/eclipse will fall on the areas of Europe, Africa and Asia. The last time that we had an event like this was on December 21, 1638, however the event in 1638 happened at the Greenwich Meridian, while the eclipse in the Americas was technically on December 20 with the solstice on the following day. More can be learned about this event at this link: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/12/18/tuesday-darkest-day-years/ I consider this Solstice 2010 event to be another confirmation of dark times to come for our nation. Wake up, America, and get right with God. It's time for the Church to pray.

These headlines were shown to Terry Bennett in a vision from the Lord. Terry was also shown that these things will happen between June 15, 2011 and June 15, 2015. Terry Bennett is known to have a valid, genuine prophetic gift from the Lord.

This page contains prophetic and Biblical insight for the next several years, as well as some inside info.

You can google "Terry Bennett" or "John Paul Jackson" and find other prophetic insights from these prophets. I also suggest googling "Lindsey Williams" to find the most recent information that he has.

Terry Bennett has an important word from the Lord that he has released on 11/21/13. It is a warning to the United States. There are many other important messages that can be found on his website.
